Dallas ISD teacher chokes 12 year old student

[03Lightningrocks]

I guess I was the only one who's first thought was "meh kid probably had it coming for a long long time." I've been around teenagers for too long I think...

Nope... there are at least two of us. That school is right smack in the middle of gang banger territory and middle school is the third year of banging for those hoodlums. They join gangs as young as 8-10 years old in that part of town. Most of those kids probably have their first drive by shooting badges and many probably have the first kill.

No doubt there are MANY that have it coming but we have to restrain ourselves. Lord knows if I didn't I would have been locked up a long time ago

Crazy herd we all graze with. I'm glad I don't live in the city!!

Me too!

I would love to live where you do but I ain't giving up electricity and my flush toilet.


Oh... and I can be eating a Jack Taco withing five minutes of deciding to get one. Can you two do that? I thought not!

Ha! No I cannot. 30 Minutes and I can be at Taco Casa in Bridgeport! Another 15 minutes in Decatur, the big city with all the stuff.

This is very hard to believe, but:

The victim, 12-year-old Joshua Flores, described the attack to News 8. "He got me by the neck, like that," Joshua said, adding the teacher, Javier Valladarez, was upset after he asked to borrow paper for a class assignment.

"I asked the teacher for some paper and he said, 'No," so I asked another student," Joshua said. "I bent down on the floor and he kneed me in the back."

Before I pass judgement, I want to know what the kid was REALLY doing prior to being choked....

A Beefy Nacho Griller is a mile, 3 minutes, from the home ranch and the gun range is 3 miles. In between, we pass the "Adult Beverage Store". So there

If the ease of obtaining a Jack-In-The-Box taco is the ultimate sign of civilization, then I'm glad to be a barbarian....

....a barbarian who lives within five minutes of a real taqueria and a soul food restaurant....
